"Bahnard" King was 2011 NBA Playoffs Carmelo Anthony, except all the time! Hell he was 2010 NBA Playoffs all the time! Bernard King could score from anywhere on the court, his arsenal was filled with quality and quantity, perhaps Bernard's biggest asset was his quickness. Bernard had a first step rivaled only by David Thompson's, and a turnaround that caused nightmares! Bernard King was a player teams prepared for, but was still unstoppable, his turnaround was shot with the same intensity and speed on both sides, his pull-ups and stop and pops (to those of you unsure they are not the same) were the greatest of his era, he gave the art of two handed dunks CPR, making simple dunks look amazing, and his transition game that alone would have rivaled LeBron James and Dwyane Wade today! Bernard's career was tainted when he was stuck on a crappy Knicks team! If the only thing we took was apex's the top scorer's ever would be Michael Jordan, George Gervin, Shaquille O'Neal, Bernard King, Elgin Baylor, Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant (not exactly in that order). '84 Bernard King was unstoppable he took a championship Celtics team to game 7 with one of the crappiest supporting classes I've seen, David Thompson and Bernard King suffered similar fates, had either one come along in the "Say NO!" era we would be looking at top 30 players ever, maybe even top twenty but that's up for debate!
There aren't many 5'5 196lbs runningbacks doing good in the NFL, in fact there aren't many that fit those description's at all, but this one seems different...
Quizz has the ability to break tackles which it seems the rest are missing, the best agility since Barry Sanders (I'm not saying as good but the best since) and the strength and toughness it takes to get back up after being hammered by an opposing player, but JacQuizz Rodgers has more on the line than to just prove himself; if JacQuizz Rodgers becomes a feature back or even a good returner and 3rd down back it will prove team wrong about Ken Simonton, Yvenson Bernard and every other back that was considered too short. With so many people proving height wrong on the o-line (Jeff Saturday), d-line (John Randle and Dwight Freeney) and wide receiver (Greg Jennings, Steve Smith, Wes Welker, DeSean Jackson and Laveranues Coles) running backs seem to be next...
With the likes of MJD and Ray Rice becoming top backs in the league teams have drawn closer to little stars more than ever, but JacQuizz a small player with first round talent was left until the 5th round, a chip has been placed on his shoulder that will lead to something special. I don't know whether Quizz being left 'til that fifth was bad or good, he always gave 110% but now it looks like h is going to be giving 200% and with the talent he has that can't be a bad thing.Quizz will prove everyone wrong, just ask NFL starting linebackers Clay Matthews, Brian Cushing, and Rey Maualuga they all know what trying to stop Quizz feels like! The
Falcons got lucky picking this stud up in the fifth! Thomas Dimitroff's draft was genius!
Good Luck to the Falcons and Quizz JacQuizz Rodgers is The Next Big Thing!
P.S. I already had my Jacquizz Rodgers Falcons Jersey made! First one ever!
